Recreate one of the most iconic images in American art with our American Gothic Cross Stitch Pattern. This full-coverage design is based on Grant Wood’s 1930 masterpiece, widely recognized as a defining image of rural America during the Great Depression. The painting depicts a stern-faced farmer holding a pitchfork, standing beside his daughter, in front of a simple Gothic-style farmhouse.
About the Painting:
American Gothic is perhaps the most famous painting by Grant Wood, a prominent figure in the American Regionalist movement. The work has often been interpreted as a representation of the traditional, hardworking values of rural America, capturing a somber yet resilient vision of life during the economic hardships of the 1930s. The painting’s dark, meticulous details contrast the stoic expressions of the farmer and his daughter with the intricate patterns of the house and the background.
